I got a chance to paint portrait of Mr Ken Spill Man who is Australian writer based in Perth, during his recent his visit to Oakridge International School Newton campus. The library department gifted this painting to him and now it’s in his collection. This is my last post in this month.

This is a portrait of one of my friends, Sajjad Husain, and he is a professional photographer. I like his shiny head with goggles, highlights on the head and goggles look same though the texture is different. Couple of day’s back I was studying the paintings of Lucian Freud they are so amazingly done. His way of depicting the Nudes and portraits are not just skilful, but they are filled with emotion and a kind of deep penetration into feelings of model.

Hyderabad is blessed with rock landscapes. You can notice rock landscapes around the city as they are 2500 million old as per the geological survey. They speak in silence and evoke the inner emotions. They became a well composed subject for me to paint. Bushes that grow near the rocks make the combination of burnt sienna, scarlet and sap green colours along with the bare blue sky. Various shapes and forms of these hard and rough textured rocks are gently touching the layers of my heart.

Due to the urbanization of city these rock hills slowly diminishing into the past.

This particular painting named “stacked” is the first one on this subject, and I would like to continue for few more compositions further.

This is a recent painting titled “in-between”. I am busy with upcoming solo exhibition of mine in “ICON “Art gallery, Hyderabad, which is on 21-02-2015 Saturday next weekend. I will post the Invitation card probably coming Monday.

Next day early in the morning when I came out, I saw this beautiful green landscape in front of our cottage. All is filled with viridian green and still the fog is so thick that it looks like clouds all around, I sat there for half an hour and did some pencil sketches. My family was in hurry in `getting ready for the breakfast and they were making couple of plans for site seeing.

Imagine the world, which is full of green will be free of pollution.

After I finished this painting in my studio, one of my friends said it looks like water colour painting rather than oil, wow I was delighted with that comment.

Small walk into the Scarlet woods, dried leaves and whistling wind……, ok fine …,I am not so good at poetic language but feels like that. After we finished walk in the woods we reached a place, where people call it as “sun set point” at 5:00 pm. The ambiance was filled with evening warm colours, Vendors of junk food shouting and trying to attract the buyers with mimic voices. We waited for one hour fifteen minutes to see the sunset.

We reached cottage at 8:30 pm after finishing our dinner, it was unbearable cold outdoor. We packed ourselves with body warmers and we could see hardly one or two campfires outside.

Photograph of my son sitting under the tree tempted me to paint it. Second day of the visit to Kodaikanal, we had a nice walk in to the woods. He was running, climbing and jumping from the trees like a monkey, after some time he got settled under the tree. Dazzling sun light spots on the ground and on his shirt created interesting colour tones. Whole painting filled with warm colours and vermillion red on the background adds little detail to the work. It’s always fun to be with nature.
